New Review For That Special Someone!
http://longandshortreviews.blogspot.com/2010/03/that-special-someone-by-jane-bierce.html
Well, isn't that lovely! I don't care about getting so many hearts or cups of coffee -- whatever. I care about the reviewer understanding what I was trying to convey in my book.
And I love secondary characters who are a little quirky when I need them to be. In THAT SPECIAL SOMEONE the hero and heroine have older brothers who met on a high school football field -- met being a bit mild for the incident -- and have never forgotten it. It's not a big thing in the story, just something that a reader may find amusing.
A comment I had from a reader or reviewer was that the setting was unusual. I never say what city the story happened in. It's afairly large industrial city with a university, a bus system and problems with their ancient sewer and water systems. The weather in winter can be brutal. I use all these ideas, hoping readers might think they know where it's set, the people and the issues.
Writing is fun -- if it weren't, I wouldn't do it.
